Public Service organizations present specific challenges for transformation initiatives. Clients and services are incredibly diverse, while authority and accountability structures are diffused across many levels and organizations.
Moving forward in such contexts requires the alignment of competing agendas from a broad spectrum of stakeholders. It requires the sophistication to manage the complexities of public service unions and the political realities involved with change.
While the challenges of transforming public service organizations seem daunting, their strengths when harnessed lead to spectacular improvements. Strengths such as the passion and commitment of those who choose to serve the public; the conviction that comes from delivering services that can have important consequences on national scales; and the proud legacies of such organizations.
